Just a layer of raspberry jam is delicious ! Then can pop some buttery chocolate icing on top of jamthen ice as per usual .

I have used this frosting type filling
70g chopped chocolate
40 mls milk
57g butter softened and cut into pieces
227g icing sugar
pinch salt
1tsp vanilla
Melt choc and cool a little then place choc, milk, icing sugar, salt and vanilla in a bowl and beat adding pieces of butter.Beat about 2 mins at low spead till smooth, scraping down sides of bowl.Increase speed to high beat 1 - 2 mins tillspreading consistency.If necessary add more milk to thin or icing sugar to thicken.
Can double quantities and use to frost over whole cake if desired.

My sister cuts the cake into three, and does a layer with fresh cream and then the other layer with chocolate ganache and it is divine :)
